Parish priests and motorcyclists handed out reflective vests

Traffic police officers from Raciborz along with the parish priest, Fr. Adrian from the parish of Saint. Nicholas in Raciborz and motorcyclists carried out a reflective action for children from the parish. During the joint activities under the slogan “Visible = Safe”, the uniforms called for safety on the road and wearing reflective elements. The children participating immediately after the mass received reflective vests.

 

Police from the Raciborz road traffic department, together with the parish priest of St. Nicholas in Raciborz and motorcyclists held a retro-reflective action in the church yesterday. Activities were conducted under the slogans “Visible = Safe” and “We are the light of the world”. The goal of the undertaking is to improve the safety of the least-protected road users, i.e. pedestrians. After the uniform, together with the clergy and motorcyclists, were handed out to all children participating in the services of the reflective vests. In this way, law enforcement officers handed over several dozens of reflective vests, funded by clergymen and motorcyclists from the SRC Raciborz group. In addition, the uniformed in the church held a short lecture on road safety.

 

Many road users forget about the obligation to wear reflectors outside the built-up area. For 3 years, the provision of the Road Traffic Act requires pedestrians to put reflections in a visible manner for drivers. The mentioned retro reflective elements can be any objects attached to clothing, safety vests, armbands, stickers, lanyards, etc. It is important, however, to place them. It is recommended to place them at knee, hand, chest and back. Thanks to this protection, we will be sure that they are visible to other traffic participants.

 

For the lack of reflection in the undeveloped area, there is even a 500-zloty mandate.

All activities aimed at increasing the safety of unprotected road users are part of the Messiah campaign entitled. “I’m safe.”
